What I still cannot fault is Garmin's support.
It is responsive and pleasant to deal with.

No argument, just a few checks and then told how to send it back.
If found faulty a new one will be s ...

My 1490T at one point showed the address book from my work's nasty 2330 Nokia. It did not from my HTC. It stopped showing the Nokia directory after I paired it with my HTC.

As it died on v5 update ...

I have tried the factory reset. I have also tried reloading using Webupdater rather than MyDashboard.
As for updating the maps, this required manually deleting files. Not the sort of thing you would ...

Oh Dear, I just updated my Garmin 1495T to v5.00. Now it's broken.
No sounds, no voices, no even any beeps. Tried a Factory reset and reloaded via Webupdater. It could be a faulty unit but it was fin ...

Have you set up a mygarmin account and registered your unit?

then [MyDashboard]

Connect your unit to the PC and it will detect updates needed.

This was guidance sent to me by Garmin. My 1490T is under warranty and I have a map update period available. If it goes wrong I am sure Garmin will sort it out quickly. However, my guess is that this ...

Now I remember why I keep buying Garmin. It's the support. Very Happy
Just 1 hour to get a sensible reply. Of course this applies to me. I will test and confirm.

Thank you for contacting Garmin Euro ...

Ian99 thanks for the advice. Is there a correct way of removing voices etc rather than just (backup first) and delete the files in the folders I can see?

This should be an easy task that should not ...

Oh no. Things have gone from bad to worse.
Whilst the refresh has sped up, it is still bad. (My HTC wildfire still has better scrolling) and the map zooming has gone berserk.

I have lost the Lane ...

My new 1490T was very disapointing regarding screen refresh. It could often take 10-15 seconds to refresh the screen when it zoomed out, and at slower roads when zoomed in the map turning was jerky.

Thanks. I am sure the only file in there was the POI.GPI when this was happening. But I will try again when I get home next week.

jdgwinnell, can you recall where these cyclops files are? I have a quick look round but not found them. In the POI folder of the unit is my POI file (without camera DB) and the 3 files for the trial G ...

jdgwinnell. Thanks for your reply.
It also seems that if I remove the PGPSW speed camera items from the POI file and install the trial Garmin Speed camera database it works correctly. I know the Garm ...

Does anybody know how to change the sound for this warning? Rather than the 3 bongs! (Polite_2) I would like to use a custom.ogg sound...as I can do for PGPSW cameras.

Unit is a TomTom One.
